摘要:In what follows, we consider Heidegger’s “ontological reading” proposed in connection with the distinction between “the objective validity” of the categories of the intellect, which supposes a logical and epistemological signification (as they are logically necessary conditions for the representation of objects), and their “objective reality”, which implies their practicability in relation with any object that would be given to our intuition. The famous interpreter reproaches Kant for having neglected the problem of the objective reality of the categories, which is their ontological meaning. For Heidegger, The Critique of Pure Reason leads to a new meaning given to metaphysics, which represents, in fact, “a fundamental ontology” (of Dasein), defining itself as ontological knowledge that precedes, conditions and guides the empirical knowledge of things. This type of knowledge is configured by the a priori forms of human spirit: the sensible intuitions, the patterns of imagination and the categories of the intellect. On the one hand, Heidegger subordinates thinking to intuition, the knowledge being marked by the finitude of Dasein, and dictated mostly by “temporality” of this one. On the other hand, he says that the transcendental imagination is “the common root” of the two sources of knowledge; the patterns of imagination being determinations of time. Under these conditions the a priori synthetic knowledge is possible due to “the transcendental determinations of time” and the objective reality of categories (their ontological statute) can be proved starting from the presumption that Dasein (Being-opened temporally) expresses “the original time”.
